The Mew World.
With the close of the war there
is spread before humanity a new
world. The earth has been rein
carnated. The old prison sholl
of autocracy, which so long en
cased hundreds of millions of
freedom-hungry souls and which
has recently threatened the lib
erty of all mankind has been bro
ken, and billions of glad hearts
throughout the whole earth are
throbbing with the happiness of
universal peace and freedom.
This thought, after the long,
dark night of war, brings an un
speakable bliss which men have
a right to eujoy to the utmost;
but there are still in this bright
new world, some serious prob
lems which must be solved.
Although humanity is now free
from the menace of the Kaiser's
mailed list and sword, there is
another freedom which must be
gained if we are to be free indeed,'
and that is a freedom from the
social and industrial enslavement
of gold in the hands of those sel
fish, profiteering, autocratic cap
italists who produce nothing of
any real valae but who, although
they already have more of this
world's goods'tban they can right
fully employ, are ever struggling
to gain more, regardless of the
fact that by so doing they are con
stantly making harder for the
world's real workers and produ
cers to obtain even the true neces
sities of life.
While the world war has stop
ped in Europe, there are still mil
lions of people throughout the
world who hate peace and love
war, and who despise the univer
sal freedom to which all mankind
is entitled and desire only autoc
racy. At the moment they are
lost sight of but they still survive
in great numbers on every part
of the globe. Many of them are
camoufUgiog their real feelings
by a pretended fondness for uni
versal freedom when in reality
they loathe it and await only a
favorable opportunity to do their
utmost to destroy it. Perhaps
they may never again dare to
strike in open warfare at our
great constitutional guarantees
ot liberty, but they worship the
god of selfishness and secretly
plan and work for the regime of
subserviency of the many to the
fe rather than for the era of
cooperative management, work
and benefit which is io essential
for the public weal.
Here in America, at least, to
secure this new freedom it is ODly
necessary to use intelligently the
forum, the press and the- ballot,
. for the American peolpe are ab
solutely their own mas'e-s and
can, by amendments to lheir Con
sitution and laws, bring about
whatever changes may be most
conducive ; to the general wel
fare.
Tbe war has r'emonstiated the
fact that the beneficial possibili
ties of industrial cooperation are
tremendous. Moreover, such
measures are in perfect harmony
with American ideas, since eveu
our municipal and general gov
ernments are, after ail, merely
big cooperative institutions form
ed, as stated in our national and
state constitutions, for the "gen
eral welfare." It is therefore
perfectly right and proper for the
American people to apply the idea
of coopeation to any aod all phases
of'everyday hfejpd cooperative
measures may wen oe rjonsiaer-
ed as a means of eliminating the
evi's of selfUh individualistic
capitalism in big business and of
preserving, at the same time, the
ucquestiooly valuable conserva
tions! advantages of of quantity
production.
Cooperative agriculture is also
a matter which merits very care
ful consideration as a welfare
measure.

German-American War Song.
When the sun was setting o'er the bill,
And the sharpe shrill sound, of the
whlppoorwlll;
The Riser sat on the German throne:
Writing bis Epitaph on his own tomb
stone; While Wilson in the white home-sat,
Preparl (f to give the Riser a spat.
The Ki'er said in angry form
I wished that Wilson had never been
born.
But Wilson In the quick reply,
Said we'll get the Kiser by and by.
Now Bill he said you soon will see,
The Stars and Stripes In Germany
And all your wicked ways you'll see,
Will soon be changed to Liberty.
Our boys on hand and air and sea,
Will flght for us and s t us free.
Now, Bill I say, I p ay you tell,
How soo i you think you'll hi in H .
In the year of seventeen on April the
sixth.
Kaiser Bill got in a fix,
Our boys are training to give you a
rap
Now Kiser Bill prepare to meet your
black Pap.
Austria oo, if you still rem mber,
Got the same on the seventh of Sep
tember, The Turks you see, we haven't forgot,
When the Yankee boys showed them
the turkey trot.
While Bill set thinking of the years
that had passed,
One deep thought came to him at last,
I see it now, we should never begun,
For Uncle Sam's boy Is some Son-
of-a gun.
They have sunk our U-Boats,
And fetched down our plains;
They have bombed every city wher
ever they can find,
And broke through the fortifications
of the Hindenburg line.
If you could ramerabe.' how often you
"seen,"
The horrors of war of tSat old sar
dine;
You will never regret, how we saved
the whole land.
And drove Kiser Bill Into Holland
The war is now over and our work is
done,
Now old Kiser Bill you Bon-of a-gun,
if the devil don't get you, I don't
know who will,
For, There never was a beast like old
v Kiser Bill.
Russell Fix.
Want The Brute.
A great msj nty of the peo
ple in this country, as well as in
Europe, are not going to be satis
tied until the ex Kaiser is turned
over to receive his tat desserts'.
It has been shown beyond any
doubt IhU he was the main iq-
strumentm tho preparation and
execution of the most diabtlical
war the world has ever seen in-
augrated, one that has cost the
lives of millions of the best men
of Beverai countries, and has
brought misery and distress to
hundreds ot thousinds of homes.
To permit a brute of his charac
ter to go without a punishment
commensurate with the crimes
he has committed, and to permit
any country to harbor such a
beast, is more than most people
can understand.
Not only should this Thing be
brought to fuh Justice but the
entire Hober z)llern familyshould
be placed where it can never
again aid ia such a warfare. The
entire crowd is unsafe to be at
hrge and exile is 'even too good
for any of them. The people
will anxiously await further de
velopments along these lines
and if uo action is taken, such
as the p.ople demand, many will
consider the war as having been
fought in vain. Franklin Reposi

ORGAN BUILT BY JAMES WATT
1 I
Corporation of Glasgow, Scotland, Has
Now Possession of 8ouvenlr, and
It Will Be Preserved.
An interesting souvenir of James
Watt, representing at once the clev
ernesH of his hands and the verna
tility of his inventive genius, was
recently sold by auction at Coulter
Mains, Lanarkshire, Scotland,
among many other historic anJ an
tique objects belonging to the es
tate of the late Adam Sim, a noted
collector. This was a chamber pipe
organ which Watt designed and pro
duced with 'his own hands in Glas
gow in 1672. Built in his own house
in High street, it eventually camo
into the hands of a John Steven,
who, about the beginning of tho lant
century was the only music seller in
the city. In 1807 it was bought by
the minister of St Andrew's church,
and after being used one Sunday in
that sacred edifice its further use
was interdicted by tho presbytery,
and caused much excited comment
throughout Glusgow. The organ lay
for years in the church unused, and
was ultimately sold through Steven
to Bailie Archibald McU'Uan for
100, on whose death it became the
property of Mr. Sim of Coulter
Mains, who paid for it 50. At the
recent sale it was knocked down to
a Mr. Black for 100, who, it was
afterward discovered, was acting for
a son of one of the towu councilors
of Glasgow ex-Deacon Convenor
Macfarlanor-who is giving it to the
Glasgow corporation for fitting pres
ervation. THREE NAMES IN A DAY.
There is one small boy in this city
who has the distinction of having
borne three names in one day. The
first namo was that of his stepfa
ther, whom he had always looked
upon as his real parent; the Becond
was that of his actual father, whom
he had never scon, and the third
was that of his foster father, who is
tlc pnstor of his church and his pal.
The boy is Georgo Frederick Wood
ward, adopted son of He v. Charles
Alexander Woodward. This boy
George was known as George Fred
crick Stevens until the day that
Doctor Woodward's petition to adopt
George was pending in court, and
his name was given as George Fred
erick Maxey. Until this petition
was presented George never knew
that he had any other father than
Harry V. Stevcnn, or that his moth
er had leen divorced. But he car
ried that handle only a few minutes,
for the court granted Doctor Wood
ward permission to adopt George.

AIRPLANE STABILITY.
Of late the British airplane de
signers appear possessed with the
idea of making their planes more or
less self-stabilizing. For instance,
the little S. E. 5 einge-seater scout
is an excellent machine as far as
speed and climbing ability are con
cerned; but because of the pro-
nouccd dihedral of its planes and
the consequent self-stabilizing effect,
:t cannot maneuver as rapidly as
otner machines. And after all. a
chasse machine is one that should be
extremely flexible in flight, for ex
trenie mobility is as valuuble a fac
tor as either great climbing rate or
great speed. Scientific American.

Morning, Perfection"
Do you have a Perfection Oil Heater
to greet on cold mornings? Its answer
is "heat" a cheerful, room-filling
warmth that drives away every bit
of chilliness and makes getting-up
time really comfortable.
. You can have this same Perfection
heat in any room in your home when
ever you want it. Besides, a Perfection
saves coal and that's something you
have to think about this winter. Use
ATLANTIC
Ravoliaht
and then you will tfet the most heat from your
Perfection. It burns without smoke, smell or
sputter because it is so hiehly refined and puri
fied that it doesn't know how. You'll find that it
jives a clearer, more brilliant light in your lamps
and lanterns, too. Always ask for it by name.
By the way, better not wait to get your Per
fection Oil Heater. And remember, they are
safe. See your dealer now. Perfections are
reasonably priced 15. 65 to 10.00,
